New Music Director Christopher Koch will begin his tenure with the Juneau Symphony with Dvorak’s Slavonic Dance No. 8, Enesco’s Romanian Rhapsody No. 2, and Sibelius Symphony No. 2 in D major, a favorite selected by the Juneau Symphony musicians. This concert will also feature 2022 Youth Solo Competition winner Angela Huffer performing Mozart’s Concerto No. 3 in G Major for Violin and Orchestra.
After two long years, the Juneau Symphony is returning to the stage as a full orchestra, and I’m honored and grateful this event is my first as the orchestra’s new music director! It’s fitting that our own homecoming concert features music signifying home for the composers who wrote it: Sibelius’ pride in Finland’s emergent independence and Dvorak’s celebration of Bohemian style and character. We’re back–together again–and we can’t wait to see you. — Dr. Christopher Koch
